The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 106 Killing Zi Tiandu and Forcing the Northern Emperor to Retreat
Divine Valley is one of the origins of the strongest royal family in ancient times.

Zi Tiandu, as the current young master and a peak expert at the second level of the Sendai realm, could crush a top-tier expert with one hand, yet he fled in terror before Ning Qingyi, who was at the Dragon Transformation realm.

Without a doubt, this was an immense humiliation, and it even became a deep-seated resentment in his heart.

Now that Ning Qingyi has personally promised not to use the Supreme Artifact, he has given Zi Tiandu the best excuse. Moreover, he has also had a certain opportunity, so even if it is a Quasi-Emperor's method, it may not be able to kill him.

Ning Qing smiled as she faced Zi Tiandu's challenge.

"Very well, Zi Tiandu, since you want to challenge me, then I'll let you experience despair. Perfect, I'll take an ancient royal as my servant!"

Ning Qing let out a long roar and took the initiative to attack.

"All living beings are equal!"

With the first move of Namo Fist, the invincible golden statue behind him formed a hand seal and sat down.

A grand vision of equality for all beings surged forth like a wave rolling across the heavens.

"kill!"

There's not much to say; Zi Tian went all out.

His expression was cold, both confident and arrogant. He faced off head-on, unleashing a tremendous force of punches, one after another, with a continuous booming sound.

"boom!"

The two immense fist forces, both bearing the marks of the Dao, intertwined densely, collided and emitted a shockwave like lightning and thunder, as if a celestial river had burst its banks, causing a deafening roar that shook the entire desolate world.

"Rumble..."

In the fierce collision, the Equal God Fist prevailed, suppressing Zi Tiandu.

The many young experts watching were all horrified, especially the many young people from the ancient clans, who were shocked by Ning Qingyi's strength when they saw him make a move for the first time.

"Unbelievable! He's actually this strong!" A young expert from the Primordial Clan exclaimed in astonishment.
"Little Celestial Venerable, could he really be the descendant of an ancient Celestial Venerable from the mythological era?" a young man from the Primordial Clan murmured.

"what……"

Zi Tiandu roared, his purple aura surging and piercing through the nine heavens. Behind him, an ancient king appeared and unleashed an even more ferocious punch.

His entire body was filled with purple light, every strand of his hair was glowing, and the purple aura soared into the sky for tens of thousands of feet. With a loud roar, the entire small world trembled.

This punch was overwhelming, carrying the indomitable spirit of the young master of the Divine Valley. It was powerful, his purple robes fluttering, and his battle aura surging like the sea.

Ning Qingyi was fearless. Since opening the path to the Emperor, he had been incredibly brave, directly overwhelming people with his strength.

"I am the only one!"

The invincible golden Buddha statue filled the heavens and earth, occupying one's mind and spirit, making one feel that the Buddha's teachings were boundless and his supernatural powers were vast.

With a single palm strike, heaven and earth came into harmony, and the vast Dao roared and rumbled, as if a chaotic miniature world had crashed down.

Everyone present felt their hearts pound, and they couldn't help but bow their heads, wanting to kneel down in worship.

"boom!"

This attack was earth-shattering. The two collided and emitted a light that resembled the collapse of the starry sky. This place became the center of a storm, which quickly spread to the surrounding areas.

Zi Tian retreated at an even faster speed than he had come. Not only that, but large amounts of blood rained down, his entire arm was covered in blood, his right fist was deformed, and his body began to crack.

Destroy the withered and decaying!

With two punches, everything was settled. Zi Tian was no match for Ning Qingyi at all. Not only was his physical body far inferior, but his understanding of the Dao was also far behind.

Zi Tian couldn't believe it. His hair was disheveled, and the excruciating pain distorted his features. There was a large pool of blood beneath him.

As the heir of the ancient royal family, he has always been arrogant, always feeling that the Little Celestial Venerable's invincible myth is just a case of "when the cat's away, the mice will play."

Now that we've truly faced him, I understand what it means to be exceptionally gifted, what it means to be invincible, and what it means to sever someone's path to becoming emperor!

"I don't believe it! How could you be so strong!"

Zi Tiandu's eyes were bloodshot with rage. His bones cracked and popped as his twisted right fist dislocated and rapidly grew back to its original shape, returning him to his peak condition.

Not only that, but purple mist floated above his head, and a weapon shot out from it.

This is an ancient purple tower, its thunderous roar shaking the heavens, with thousands upon thousands of thick purple wisps descending to protect it below.

This weapon was forged by an old man in the Valley of Gods. It is a true divine weapon of kings, and no one but a true king can budge it. Its defensive power is astonishing.

"Go to hell!"

Zi Tiandu wielded this heavy weapon, smashing it down. Endless purple waves crashed down, like a tidal wave, powerful and overwhelming, surging forward.

The Holy Prince frowned. Clearly, Zi Tiandu had gone too far by relying on the advantage of his weapon.

Other ancient clan youths also expressed their dissatisfaction. A peak second level of the Sendai realm fighting against a human youth who had just entered the Sendai realm, and even having to use a king's divine weapon, was simply tarnishing the reputation of the ancient royal family.

"Using a divine weapon to attack me? You're practically asking for death!" Ning Qingyi sneered, preparing to teach him a lesson.

Above his primordial spirit, the ever-changing minor destiny talismans shone brightly, manifesting a gate to immortality in his heart.

In the next instant, he unleashed the secret technique of the character "兵" (soldier).

The Purple Qi Ancient Pagoda was interrupted by the "Soldier" secret technique, and came to an abrupt halt in mid-air. The purple qi spread disorderly, completely disrupting space and time.

Zi Tiandu's pupils contracted, feeling that he was rapidly losing control of this important artifact. He didn't understand what was happening, but his primordial spirit kept warning him.

"Blow it up!"

Ning Qingyi completely seized the Purple Tower and charged back towards Purple Heaven Capital. Not only that, a great portal landed on the Purple Tower's deity. The Purple Ancient Tower's deity could not withstand it at all, and with a groan, it exploded on the spot, completely disintegrating.

"boom!"

The self-destruction of a supreme divine weapon was earth-shattering. The divine power emanating from its dissipation was like a world-destroying tidal wave, striking directly at the heavens and the earth!

"what!"

Zi Tian, ​​who was nearby, was completely unable to resist! He cried out in pain, and caught off guard, his physical body shell shattered inch by inch, and he was blown to pieces on the spot, disappearing into a vast expanse of purple energy.

Ning Qingyi coldly watched all of this. The "Soldier" Secret of the Nine Secrets, spanning millions of years of ancient history, is still the strongest technique for controlling, refining, and sacrificing soldiers. It requires the practitioner to refine a unique "weapon" as its foundation.

Ning Qingyi did not possess a "unique" artifact. The four divine runes of the Wheel Sea Secret Realm were used to refine the Dao Tribulation Golden Heart Lamp, the Divine Mark Purple Gold Immortal Bell, the Chaos Divine Pillar, and the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Sword Bone, respectively. However, he possessed the Gate to Immortality!

This great portal, which transcends, suppresses, and evolves everything, even if it is just a phantom, can operate the "Soldier" secret technique without any hindrance. Moreover, its power is surprisingly great, directly destroying a king-level divine weapon.

"Tian Du!" His sister, Zi Tian Feng, exclaimed, her expression changing drastically. In just three moves, her younger brother, Zi Tian Du, was reduced to nothing but dust, leaving her no time to offer any assistance!

Whether they were young experts from the ancient races or young experts from the human race, everyone present felt their hands and feet go cold and were horrified.

The young master of the Divine Valley, an heir to an ancient royal family, was defeated by Ning Qingyi.

The young master of Shenling Valley was undoubtedly a strongman, ranking among the top even among the emerging young powerhouses of the ancient races. Yet, Ning Qingyi defeated him without any trickery, in just a few moves, which was more powerful than any words.

What kind of strength is this? To defeat an enemy across more than a dozen minor realms—even the children of the Primordial Emperor couldn't do that, right?

How could such a monster appear in this world? It's practically cutting off everyone's path to becoming an emperor!
"I feel as if I am witnessing the birth of a great emperor." A young human was distraught, feeling as if everything was an illusion.

"Could it be that he has already entered the forbidden realm of the gods...?"

A chilling thought crept into the minds of the youths of the ancient races; realizing this, they all shuddered. Wang Teng watched all this expressionlessly, only clenching his fists.

Ning Qingyi stared at the gradually subsiding explosion, motionless, her face devoid of any joy: "What, aren't you going to make a move? Or are you hoping I'll lower my guard and you'll launch a sneak attack?"

"What? Zi Tian isn't dead?"

"Did he see wrong?"

"Could it be that……"

The young experts from the myriad ancient races quickly exchanged ideas, each having come up with something.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

A series of drumbeats sounded, deep and muffled like thunder, and waves of purple energy surged toward Ning Qingyi. The drumbeats were deafening, and each one could kill a master.

In the void, a large drum made of dragon skin appeared, and a radiant purple celestial being was beating it. Each beating released a burst of light.

This is a dragon-skin drum, modeled after the weapons of the ancient ancestral king. It can emit ancient heavenly sounds, possesses immense power, destroys a person's primordial spirit, and kills them in an instant.

The rays of light eventually converged into an ocean of light.

Zi Tiandu merged the dragon skin drum with his primordial spirit, controlling the ocean as it surged forward.

The entire world roared, and various Dao patterns appeared, all seemingly on the verge of destruction, including the concepts of immortality, eternity, and eternity.

Ning Qing was instantly frozen in place, bound in the void.

"As expected, he has mastered the supreme secret technique of the Divine Valley."

"Could it be that he did this intentionally, trying to steal that body?"

The young man from the ancient races revealed a look of understanding.

That makes sense! How could a human be so strong? It must be that Zi Tian wanted to do this, which is why he did it this way.

"Use everything you have to fulfill my wish!" Zi Tiandu's face revealed a cruel expression.

This is the Valley of the Divine Spirits, where the main focus is on cultivating the primordial spirit; the physical body is merely a stopover!
Ning Qingyi coldly stared at Zi Tiandu, who had rushed close, and then raised her hand to unleash the final strike of the Nanwu Fist.

"All thoughts are empty!"

The Buddha sighed and said, "All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, dew, and lightning; thus should they be viewed."

Zi Tiandu's expression froze, along with the ocean of Dao light emanating from the dragon skin drum. The light then quickly faded and disappeared into the world.

A chill ran through everyone from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads. The supreme secret technique of the Divine Valley disappeared without causing the slightest ripple.

"Tiandu!"

Zi Tianfeng cried out. She couldn't believe that her younger brother had been killed so easily, and even the secret techniques of Shenling Valley were useless.

"You go to hell!"

Her younger brother died tragically before her eyes, driving her mad. She immediately took out the secret treasure that the ancient king in the valley had given her before her departure. It was a replica of an ancestral king's weapon, but it was extremely special, capable of unleashing power exactly the same as the original.

"boom!"

The majestic divine power revived, shaking the heavens and the earth, as if it were about to sink the earth.

Ning Qingyi sneered: "You're courting death."

The Primordial Azure Gold Pagoda flew out from the Sea of ​​Wheels and hung above his head. After this supreme artifact was forged into the second of the nine divine metals, it became even more divine. The myriad divine rays hanging down tightly protected him.

The power of the treasure was completely blocked, and it couldn't hurt him at all.

Zi Tianfeng also came to her senses. Looking at the Supreme Artifact, the fear in her heart overwhelmed everything. She wanted to run, but unfortunately, the Supreme Artifact only emitted a divine light, which completely annihilated her.

"In a fair contest, I will not use the Supreme Artifact, but I will not be polite to those who bully the weak!" Ning Qingyi said, looking at the ancient races.

The ancient races below remained silent, knowing that Ning Qingyi was not lying.

"Wang Teng, it's your turn!"

Ning Qingyi didn't care whether the other party believed it or not, and turned to look at Wang Teng, whose face was ashen.

Wang Teng remained silent, but Jin Chixiao of the Golden Family stepped forward and said with a smile, "Little Celestial Venerable, you are so powerful! Even Zi Tiandu, the young master of the Divine Spirit Valley, was easily defeated by you. We should drink a toast to you!"

The many young humans from the Beiyuan family nearby also tried to smooth things over.

"Little Celestial Venerable truly lives up to his reputation as one of the Six Heroes, bringing glory to the divine might of our human race."

"Little Celestial Venerable, you and your brother are both young masters of our human race. Let's not hurt our harmony."

……

Ning Qing tilted her head, coldly staring at them, and a terrifying aura began to gather.
In an instant, the temperature in the world began to drop.
Soon, many of the young experts from Beiyuan trembled and dared not move.

"What...are you?"

Ning Qingyi's simple words struck everyone like a heavy hammer. Anger and fear flashed in their eyes, but in the end, they dared not move.

"It's one thing to fawn over the ancient clans, but you dare to try and control my thoughts? Do you think I wouldn't kill anyone?"

"And you, Jin Chixiao, you're a human, yet you claim to be a member of the Golden Royal Family?"

Ning Qing stared at Jin Chixiao, a murderous glint in her eyes.

Jin Chixiao's expression changed drastically. Under Ning Qingyi's gaze, he felt as if his body was about to shatter: "I..."

"Someone who doesn't even know their own place dares to interrupt?"

Ning Qingyi looked at Wang Teng, waiting for his answer.

"Ning Qingyi, what exactly do you want to do?" Wang Teng's face was ashen, but his voice was frighteningly calm.

Ning Qingyi looked at him quietly, then suddenly chuckled, somewhat disheartened: "Hand over the 'Former' Secret. With the Nine Secrets in your hands, it's truly a waste of talent."

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng clenched his fists, and the atmosphere between the two became terrifyingly heavy.

Finally, Wang Teng threw out a piece of ancient wood, about half a foot long, with no luster on it. When it bounced on the ground, it made a clanging sound, just like metal.

"The Nine Secrets are contained within them."

Ning Qing took it, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

He activated the "Lin" secret technique, merging with the myriad principles of heaven and earth. In his eyes, the ancient tree came to life completely. He saw the seed sprout into a towering tree, and a trace of the Dao was emerging within it.

"boom!"

The primordial spirit burst forth, its mysterious energy flowing, and the world lost its color in that instant, as it was taken away by it.

"Very good, this is the secret of the character '前' (qian). I've learned another one..."

Ning Qingyi has left, and now, only two of the Nine Secrets are missing.
